Histone modifications influence the action of Snf2 family remodelling enzymes by different mechanisms [PDF]
Alteration of chromatin structure by chromatin modifying and remodelling activities is a key stage in the regulation of many nuclear processes. These activities are frequently interlinked, and many chromatin remodelling enzymes contain motifs that ...

H3 Lysine 4 Is Acetylated at Active Gene Promoters and Is Regulated by H3 Lysine 4 Methylation [PDF]
Methylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me) is an evolutionarily conserved modification whose role in the regulation of gene expression has been extensively studied.

IPO-38 is a potential biomarker for early diagnosis of gastric cancer that we recently identified. Although we characterized its chemical nature as a nucleosome histone, we suspected the existence of histone modification for the IPO-38 antibody-labeled ...

Histone modification in Drosophila [PDF]
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of nucleosomal core histones play roles in basic biological processes via altering chromatin structure and creating target sites for proteins acting on chromatin. Several features make Drosophila a uniquely effective model for studying PTMs.

Global Analysis of the Relationship between JIL-1 Kinase and Transcription [PDF]
The ubiquitous tandem kinase JIL-1 is essential for Drosophila development. Its role in defining decondensed domains of larval polytene chromosomes is well established, but its involvement in transcription regulation has remained controversial.

Finding combinatorial histone code by semi-supervised biclustering
Background Combinatorial histone modification is an important epigenetic mechanism for regulating chromatin state and gene expression. Given the rapid accumulation of genome-wide histone modification maps, there is a pressing need for computational ...

The histone H3 lysine 36 methyltransferase HypB facilitates embryonic stem cell differentiation [PDF]
Histone H3 lysine 36 (H3K36) methylation was identified as a conserved modification from yeast to human. In yeast, biochemical characterization of the SET2 protein and genome wide mapping of H3K36me2 and K36me3 indicate that H3K36 methylation functions ...

Complex exon-intron marking by histone modifications is not determined solely by nucleosome distribution [PDF]
It has recently been shown that nucleosome distribution, histone modifications and RNA polymerase II (Pol II) occupancy show preferential association with exons (“exon-intron marking”), linking chromatin structure and function to co-transcriptional ...

SnapShot: Histone Modifications
Histone proteins are decorated by a variety of protein posttranslational modifications called histone marks that modulate chromatin structure and function, contributing to the cellular gene expression program. This SnapShot summarizes the reported human, mouse, and rat histone marks, including recently identified lysine acylation marks.

Histone crosstalk directed by H2B ubiquitination is required for chromatin boundary integrity [PDF]
Genomic maps of chromatin modifications have provided evidence for the partitioning of genomes into domains of distinct chromatin states, which assist coordinated gene regulation.
